[QUOTE="the5, post: 15560663, member: 146891"] Just realized I never posted an update after Road Atlanta Here! We took 2nd in a field of 43 cars. Beat professional race teams and really fast cars in the highest class of the top armature endurance race series in US. On Sunday we started in P2 and took the green flag on the front row. We had never been to Road Atlanta Before and only had Qualifying to learn the track on Friday. [ATTACH=full]706961[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]706962[/ATTACH] Saturday we were Running P3 with about an hour to go when the alternator blew. This is because we ran the 96-10 style alternator to accommodate the power steering in 05-10 location. Luckily I knew this might be an issue so I brought a spare 96-10 alternator. A quick fix by Eric Rockwell was able to get us back on track with Dave Thoman at the wheel and keep P3 for the day. [ATTACH=full]706963[/ATTACH] To make sure this didnt happen on Sunday I spent Saturday night swappingto the Boss 302R Alternator kit and Power steering bracketry which I also thought ahead to pack as a spare.This involved running all new power steering lines and re doing the alternator main wire. Finished the job at 12:30 Am after racing all day and was back up at 6 Am to race Sunday. [ATTACH=full]706964[/ATTACH] Sunday after our P3 finish Led to us starting on the front row as the P2 car was unable to be fixed in time for the race start. Sunday was a bittersweet day as Lori's engine blew up in a spectacular fashion on front straight with 50 min left in a 18hr race. By that time we were well ahead of 3rd place team. Eric's old engine served us well and delivered podium performance as a goodbye. [ATTACH=full]706965[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]706966[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]706967[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]706968[/ATTACH] We will be back for the Glen, Lori will be retired for now and the new Boss 302R will come out and play!
